Arceus’ Pirate Journey - Chapter 1508
Chapter 1486 30: Decisive Battle, Quinn’s Predicted Future
The people in the imperial court are in panic. It is said that if you stand on the top of the palace now, you can see the rebel flag approaching.
However, many people were secretly delighted. The empire could be divided into three main factions, one of which was the corrupt faction that followed Ernest.
One faction is the conscientious faction, which hopes to change the empire from within, and the other is the revolutionary faction.
Some have already defected from the empire and are waiting for an opportunity, while others are still within the empire. Now it seems that Ernest is finally going to be sanctioned.
Under long-term persecution, some people in the empire even felt that no matter who was in charge, it would not be worse than Ernest.
“Minister, is the situation really that critical?”
The emperor of the empire is just a child, a puppet completely controlled by Ernest, and basically obeys Ernest’s orders.
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. Although it is a pity that General Bud died in battle, we still have a way to eliminate the rebels.”
Ernest gnawed on the roasted meat and did not seem panicked, because he still had a trump card – the Supreme Emperor’s Weapon.
That was the most powerful imperial weapon created by the emperor at that time. It was powerful enough to keep the empire stable.
However, that imperial weapon can only be activated by royal blood, so Ernest has been supporting the little emperor and has not directly usurped the throne.
Moreover, he could not usurp the throne. Budd ignored Ernest’s actions because he abided by the old-fashioned rule that military generals could not interfere in politics. But if Ernest started a rebellion, Budd would intervene.
Not to mention that special weapon.
Now that Budd is dead, Ernest thinks it is a good thing.
As long as the rebels were eliminated, no one in the court would be able to stop him.
At the same time, in the mountains near the imperial capital, a group of people were holding a meeting.
“Everyone, the rebels affiliated with Esdeath have already reached the outskirts of the imperial capital. According to their pace, they will appear near the imperial capital within a week.
The revolutionary army has also begun to move in the southwest, and has sent us the latest instructions.”
This is the command center of the night attack, and Najeshitan has a drawn map in her hand.
“The Imperial Capital is the most heavily defended place in the Empire. Although they have killed Budd before, there are still several Imperial Tool Users in the Imperial Capital, and it is difficult to deal with them with the Imperial Capital’s defense.
Our goal is to sneak into the palace when they take action and kill the officials who caused today’s situation in one fell swoop!”
On the map of the imperial capital, there is a big X marked on the location of the royal palace.
Even though Esdeath’s army had nothing to do with the Revolutionary Army, the Revolutionary Army was still willing to help. They sacrificed many people in order to overthrow the empire.
The word “revolution” itself has a profound meaning. During the countless years that the empire has stood tall, the revolutionary army has been the pioneers. Compared to those who are complacent, their actions deserve respect.
And as Esdeath’s actions expanded, their flag also changed, from Kaido’s skull flag to Arceus’s Thousand Arms.
This is the consistent style of action of the Beasts over the years. Different from the pirate culture that was prevalent in the pirate world at the beginning, most people have become accustomed to accepting the protection of the skull and crossbones flag. Many people in the outside world are not used to the skull and crossbones flag. This flag will affect Kaido’s ability to attract the local people to surrender to a certain extent.
Changing flags is an act of low-level pirates, and Kaido will not do it. However, once he determines to launch a large-scale operation in a place and prepares to make it his permanent territory, the flag of the Thousand Universe Arm will be taken out.
Using the old friend’s symbol is not the same as changing the flag. Therefore, after Esdeath’s army grew stronger, she also followed Kaido and used the flag of the Thousand Universe Arm as the symbol of the army.
Even though it’s just a pattern, it still has a significant impact.
“This is a biological imperial weapon sent by the Revolutionary Army Headquarters. It belongs to my partner, Susanoo. In the remaining time, you should get to know each other better.
Tatsumi still hasn’t found a Teigu that suits him, so you and Raber will be responsible for our retreat this time. It’s too dangerous for you to directly participate in the battle without a Teigu.”
Time is passing, the attack on the imperial capital is gradually being prepared, and the army under Esdeath has been completely renewed after the long battle.
The battlefield is a cruel melting pot, and those who can survive are naturally experienced veterans.
“Lord Esdeath, the envoys of the Revolutionary Army have arrived. They have sent some Imperial Artifact Users, who have expressed their willingness to cooperate with you in capturing the Imperial Capital. The only condition is that you treat the civilians well and eliminate the criminals after you capture the city.”
“Promise them, but they must obey my command.”
The conditions of the Revolutionary Army were nothing. Esdeath had originally intended to do this. In her opinion, this would be her territory in the future, and she must not persecute ordinary people at will.
“yes.”
Early the next morning, the war arrived as expected. With the cooperation of artillery and various well-made engineering equipment, countless people launched a general attack on the imperial capital.
There are also several large dangerous species among them. It is an imperial weapon controlled by the Revolutionary Army, which can command the actions of dangerous species on land. These giant beasts are very good tools for breaking into cities.
There were also dozens of strange birds in the sky trying to attack the people below. They were dangerous species raised by the empire in the imperial weapons and were one of the lines of defense to protect the imperial capital.
However, before those dangerous species could take any action, they were cut in half by the ice blades in mid-air. Esdeath used her magical powers to fly in the air and solved those dangerous beasts by herself.
The artillery on the city wall was also firing back, but Quinn and Yamato felt something was wrong.
“Miss, do you feel it? It’s too quiet. This doesn’t seem like the defense a capital city of a country should have.”
“Well, it’s really weird, but I can’t quite put my finger on it.”
Boom! Boom!
Boom!
When the army outside approached the city wall, the bell of retreat suddenly rang from the wall. Then, with a sound like an earthquake, the imperial capital seemed to be completely shrouded in smoke and dust. A giant that was more than ten times taller than the city wall appeared in the center of the imperial capital.
The Guardian Mecha God-The Supreme Throne, the most powerful imperial weapon in the empire.
“Is there such a thing in the Empire?!”
The giant mecha brought the attacking forces to a standstill. Those familiar with the Empire had never expected that the Empire had such a trump card. However, Yamato, who had been sitting in the back, stood up.
“No, if we let this thing do it, the loss will be too great.”
Yamato saw the actions of the Supreme Imperial Equipment. The rays released from its chest created a gap of hundreds of meters in the city wall. People touched by the rays disappeared instantly. Even the soldiers who were close to it had their flesh and blood stripped away at that moment, leaving only a pile of bones.
“Oh, Miss, you did see it. It’s really unexpected that the so-called imperial tool can be so powerful. It’s comparable to ancient weapons.”
“Can you predict the future?”
“Hahahaha. Do you really think I was just on vacation all these years?!”
